Major Barbara is a powerful exploration of idealism and moral conflict through the lens of social satire by George Bernard Shaw. The story centers on Barbara Undershaft, a Salvation Army officer, who confronts her estranged father, an affluent arms manufacturer. As their differing values collide, the play delves into profound themes of wealth, poverty, and redemption. Directed by Peter Hinton-Davis, it promises to provoke thought on justice and human nature, resonating as much today as it did when first performed in 1907.
